GI Bill: A Real American Hero
The Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944, often referred to as the GI Bill, was passed by the federal government
to assist US veterans returning home after their service in World War II. It provided various kinds of support, 1 such
as support in the form of unemployment benefits and mortgage assistance. The GI Bill is best known, however, for
the education and training assistance 2 theyprovided veterans. By 1956, the bill had enabled nearly eight million
veterans to pursue higher education and training opportunities. The resulting influx of students had a dramatic effect
on higher education in the United States. 3 This sharp increase primarily took place during the post-war years. In that
relatively short time, the GI Bill engendered long-lasting changes in the landscape of US higher education.
Under the provisions of the 1944 GI Bill, veterans received financial support to take academic, technical, or
vocational classes. For a variety of reasons—to build on their technical military experience, 4 to support their
families, or perhaps to retrain and become competitive in a pre-war professional career—many veterans chose the
second or third option. Whether they enrolled in a technical engineering class or a vocational class on
auto-repair, 5 they’re overarching objectives were to become employed. According to a survey analysis, veterans
returning to the University of Illinois had 6 one “predominating request”: an efficient course of study to prepare for a
job.
Many new programs began to emerge in response to the rising demand for job-oriented training and education. For
example, a proposal to expand the programs for technical and general education in New York surfaced as early
as 7 1944. The State University of New York (SUNY) was subsequently founded in 1948. Massachusetts’ Stonehill
College, which 8 has been established in the same year, estimates that veterans comprised up to a third of its first
entering class. 9 Some vocational training programs were even created specifically for the benefit of returning
veterans. One of the most unique examples in this category is the Culinary Institute of America, founded in 1946 to
offer 10 a novel curriculum for learning cooking stuff.
By opening the gates of higher education to veterans, the GI Bill 11 dramatically increased the college enrollment
growth rate. The bill is credited with producing 500,000 engineers, 250,000 teachers, 200,000 medical professionals,
and 117,000 metal workers. At that time, this was the most highly educated workforce in the country’s history.
